The Hebrew word "chasil" is sometimes translated as "caterpillar" in English versions of the Bible, though it can also refer to a type of locust or other devouring insect. The caterpillar is mentioned in several passages, primarily in the Old Testament, where it symbolizes devastation and the consequences of disobedience to God.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/joel/1-4.htm">Joel 1:4</a> :</b> "What the devouring locust has left, the swarming locust has eaten; what the swarming locust has left, the young locust has eaten; and what the young locust has left, the destroying locust has eaten." While the Berean Standard Bible does not specifically use the term "caterpillar" in this verse, the progression of locusts described here is often associated with various stages of locust development, including the caterpillar stage. This passage highlights the totality of destruction that can occur when God allows such plagues as a form of judgment.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/jeremiah/51-14.htm">Jeremiah 51:14</a> :</b> "The LORD of Hosts has sworn by Himself: 'Surely I will fill you up with men as with locusts, and they will shout in triumph over you.'" Although the term "caterpillar" is not directly used in this verse, the imagery of locusts is prevalent. The caterpillar, as a stage in the locust's life cycle, is part of the broader metaphor for overwhelming numbers and destruction.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/nahum/3-15.htm">Nahum 3:15-16</a> :</b> "There the fire will consume you; the sword will cut you down and devour you like a young locust. Multiply yourselves like the young locust; multiply like the swarming locust!" Here, the imagery of locusts, including the caterpillar stage, is used to describe the impending judgment and destruction that will come upon Nineveh. The passage emphasizes the futility of resistance against divine judgment.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Interpretation:</b><br><br>In biblical literature, the caterpillar, along with other stages of the locust, serves as a symbol of divine retribution and the consequences of sin. The destructive nature of these insects is a vivid representation of how disobedience to God can lead to ruin and desolation. The use of such imagery would have been particularly poignant to ancient agrarian societies, for whom locust plagues were a real and devastating threat.<br><br>The caterpillar's role in these passages underscores the theme of repentance and the need for adherence to God's commandments. The devastation wrought by these creatures serves as a call to return to righteousness and seek God's mercy. The imagery of the caterpillar and locusts is a reminder of the power and sovereignty of God over creation, as well as His ability to use natural phenomena to fulfill His purposes.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context:</b><br><br>In the ancient Near East, locust plagues were a common and feared occurrence. These swarms could decimate crops and lead to famine, making them a fitting metaphor for divine judgment. The caterpillar, as part of the locust's life cycle, would have been understood as a stage in this destructive process. The biblical authors used this imagery to communicate the severity of God's judgments and the need for His people to remain faithful.<br><br>Overall, the caterpillar in the Bible serves as a powerful symbol of destruction and a reminder of the importance of obedience to God. Through these vivid images, the biblical text communicates the reality of divine justice and the hope of restoration for those who turn back to God.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Caterpillar</span><p>The representative in the Authorized Version of the Hebrew word <i>chasil</i> and <i>yelek</i> . <ol> <li><i>Chasil</i> occurs in (<a href="/1_kings/8-37.htm">1 Kings 8:37</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/6-28.htm">2 Chronicles 6:28</a>; <a href="/psalms/78-46.htm">Psalms 78:46</a>; <a href="/isaiah/33-4.htm">Isaiah 33:4</a>; <a href="/joel/1-4.htm">Joel 1:4</a>) and seems to be applied to a locust, perhaps in its larva state.</li> <li><i>Yelek.</i> [<a href="../l/locust.htm">LOCUST</a>].</li> </ol><a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Caterpillar</span><p>Some locust-like insect, now undistinguishable, De 28:38 <a href="/1_kings/8-37.htm">1 Kings 8:37</a> <a href="/psalms/78-46.htm">Psalm 78:46</a> 105:34 <a href="/isaiah/33-4.htm">Isaiah 33:4</a>.
